Wave of support from top performers. All of those stories here in just a moment. Sport and for a full round up, from the bbc sport centre, heres lizzy. Hello from the bbc sport centre. Were starting with the the news today that the future of the Commonwealth Games and its viability is being questioned, after alberta announced theyre cancelling their bid to host the 2030 event. It follows victoria, in australia, who also pulled out of staging the next games in 2026. Our correspondent, alex capstick, tells us where this leaves the games. It would seem to be in crisis. Without a house for the next two editions. Although they insist there is ongoing dialogue with potential hosts. It has been suggested india or malaysia might lodge a bid. But one committed and prepared to meet all of the financial demands of staging such a Big Multisports event has increasingly difficult. Fifa is investigating an official complaint that the zambia head coach, bruce mwape, sexually assaulted a player at the world cup. Mwape is accused of rubbing his hands over the chest of one of his players during a Training Session in new zealand last month. In response, the Football Association of zambia says it hasnt received any complaints and that all the sessions were filmed. Zambia are no longer in the tournament after being knocked out in the group stages. Some Transfer News now, and french defender axel disasi has joined chelsea from Monaco Forjust over 49 million. The 25 year old will offer Mauricio Pochettino Defensive Cover at stamford bridge, after Wesley Fofana sustained a serious knee injury recently. Its chelseas fifth signing of the summer. Diana taurasi became the first Wnba Player To Reach 10,000 points on thursday night. The Phoenix Mercury guard started the night needing just 18 points to reach the milestone, as her side beat Atlanta Dream 91 71. After this achievement, the 41 year old was asked if retirement was on the cards. When you get to this age, you probably think about retirement every ten minutes. You know, every time i get to the weight room at 8am, every time i get to the Trading Table for a massage. All these things, you think about it, but every morning i wake up wanting to play basketball, wanting to compete, wanting to get this team back on track to win the championship. All those things are still inside me, revving up this uncomfortable little brat that just wants to playing basketball. The british moto gp is this sunday, and six time World Champion marc marquez will be on the grid. The spainard injured his arm in a crash in 2020 and needed surgery, missing the next two seasons. 2023 was supposed to be a fresh start, but he arrives at silverstone having crashed in all three of his races this season. Now i feel ready to fight for the victories, but for some reason i am not able to do it. So that becomes difficult on the mental side. Then a lot of crashes and all the injuries, difficult for the mental side. But, you know, i say on the professional side, in professional life, it is the hardest moment of my career. But the hardest moment of my career. But the professional life is the best moment in my life. So this compensates a bit and lay people around me try to help me to go out from that situation. Shohei 0htani hit His 40th Home Run of the season before his Los Angeles Angels blew a 2 run lead to the Seattle Mariners on thursday. 0htani drilled this line drive into the stands at Angel Stadium in the eighth inning. He now leads the major leagues for home runs, the second year he has passed a0. He managed that despite having to leave the mound as a pitcher after only four scoreless innings due to cramping in his Pitching Hand and fingers. They lost the game 5 3 in the ninth inning. And thats all the sport for now. To west africa now where a regional delegation which was aiming to mediate in niger, following last weeks coup has left the country afterjust a few hours without any sign of progress. The negotiators appointed by the regional bloc, ecowas, didnt meet the deposed president , Mohamed Bazoum, or the leader of the coup. Mr bazoum has urged the International Community to help restore order. Writing in the washington post, he said he was a hostage, and warned that the entire sahel region could fall under russian influence. Lets speak to our correspondent, catherine byaruhanga, whos following developments from nairobi.

But the information we are getting right now is that this delegation was in the country for just a few hours. Is that this delegation was in the country forjust a few hours. They met some members of the military but they didnt relate neatly top man himself or the deposed president , to try and mediate between the two of them possibly. We understand It Delegation has now left. They reason this is important is because ecowas had given military a deadline of this sunday to step down otherwise they might use force to force to try to remove them from power.

But at the same time we have been hearing a softening of the language from politicians in west africa saying a Military Intervention would be the last resort. For example, they must powerfully get in west africa at the moment, the president of nigeria, said he would like and amico resolution to this crisis. Amicable resolution to this crisis.

It is an important part of the world, it sits in the sohel region where you have a lot of Islamist Groups operating, groups linked to isis and alqaeda. This is obviously of concern to western countries who have faced Terrorist Attacks from these organisations in the past. It also sits close to libya and major migration rates. You have many people using niger as a route to try to get to europe. This is the reason why niger has been an important partnerfor is the reason why niger has been an important partner for the International Community. The warning from president Mohamed Bazoum is that people dont take the serious, then there could be further consequences for so many of us around the world. An Appeals Court in romania has lifted the house arrest imposed on the controversial influencer, andrew tate. He and his brother, tristan, deny charges of rape, Human Trafficking and forming an organised crime group to sexually exploit women. The court has placed Them Underjudicial control, meaning they cant leave the country without permission. The bbc� s nick thorpe is following events and sent this update. Judicial control is actually a lesser form of house arrest. He can go out of his house. Until now, he and his brother were shot inside their house. They can go out of the house and could go anywhere within the county around their home, which includes the remaining capital, bucharest. This will have to report regularly to the police. But obviously for andrew tate and his brother, this is a sense of a bit more freedom of first prison, then strict house arrest. They are into allege romain many accomplices were arrested in december of last year. They were then facing charges of rape, of organised crime, forming a criminal gang, and of trafficking. Effectively, the Prosecution Service say they have seven alleged victims, people who have given evidence against the brothers and their two remaining accomplices, one of him as a former romanian policewomen. Since learning that has been this legal battle for them to release themselves from prison, because they were held for several months in prison, and that each stage are effectively bringing them slightly closer to freedom. But they still face those charges, which were actually only formally laid in june. They face very serious charges. Clearly the remaining legal system is trying to show it is fair and they can now defend themselves. He basically made a statement to the media outside his house. Until now he couldnt stand outside his house and speak to journalists. Now he has made a very strong statement, thanking the romanian end Justice System for being fair and reiterating his and his brothers innocence. Very much taking this opportunity of being placed under justJudicial Control opportunity of being placed under just Judicial Control to opportunity of being placed under justJudicial Control to say once again he is completely innocent and is confident in the Romanian Court system that they will eventually clear his name. Some Exciting Health news now scientists in spain have found a naturally occurring strain of bacteria which could help stop the transmission of malaria from mosquitoes to humans. The discovery suggests the bacteria could reduce the quantity of the Malaria Parasite in a mosquito by more than 70 . Every year, malaria kills more than 600,000 people so, how significant is the breakthrough . Lets ask our Global Health correspondent, naomi grimley. Scientists stumbled over this discovery, didnt they . figs scientists stumbled over this discovery, didnt they . Scientists stumbled over this discovery, didnt they .

Scientists at the facility in spain were looking at Drug Discovery and drug research, and they found that their Mosquito Colony there stopped getting Malaria Parasites in their cots. They did a bit more investigation, they had the presence of mind to freeze the samples. They didnt use through the colony away, they threw is the samples, and then they went back to them a few years later. They discovered there was this special strain of bacteria which were sitting in the gut of the mosquitoes, and they realise that naturally occurring bacteria could secrete a small molecule which seem to suppress malaria. Quite a finding for them. The question now is can they turn into some kind of product luckily goes for Malaria Intervention in the world. What are they saying intervention in the world. What are they saying about intervention in the world. What are they saying about that intervention in the world. What are they saying about that final intervention in the world.

Strides in Malaria Prevention in the last few years. We now have scenes of that beginning to be rolled out in africa. But it is a disease which is really been with the human race for many centuries. What they are looking at now is the ideal trials in big greenhouses in burkina faso and they are looking to see whether it is effective in the pretend real world, because of course we dont want to release Malaria Mosquitoes out into the world before they know. They are also going to check for safety. For example, would using this bacteria in some form, would that be bad for other insects and upset the ecosystem . They are even looking at whether they can extract the compound that i mentioned from it and perhaps put that on surfaces were they know mosquitoes might rest and mosquitoes would soak up that compound. So all kind of ways of trying to cut down on malaria transmission. This isjust the start, but is potentially a really exciting development. Around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news.

The canadian province, alberta, has cancelled its bid to host the 2030 event blaming rising costs. Last month australia pulled out of hosting the 2026 games in victoria. 0ur reporter Nicky Schiller is in the news room with more. The Commonwealth Games take place every four years, they include a range of sports. They started in 1930, and the only time they have been cancelled was during world war ii. To take part in the games he had to be an athlete from one of the 5a Commonwealth Countries or 18 territories. Alberta, in canada, had bid to stage the 2030 games. They had a promotional video and website. But now the government has pulled out because of the cost. They say it has risen so much, up to an estimated 2. 7 billion canadian dollars. The sports and Tourism Minister said that was too high for the province to bear. In his statement he suggested it was down to things like the sponsorship model, and also the limited money they can get from tv rights, saying that it meant that 93 of the cost and risk was on the taxpayer. At the moment there is no host bidding for the 2030 games. find moment there is no host bidding for the 2030 games. Moment there is no host bidding for the 2030 games. And 2036 as well .

In terms of what these games mean the financial deadlines. In terms of what these games mean to the financial deadlines. In terms of| what these games mean to athletes and the future of the games in its entirety, is that now in any doubt. I think it probably is. A lot of athletes like taking part in the games because in its athlete and para athletes who take part in them. This is the person who holds the record for most Commonwealth Games, m in the queue australian athlete. Uk athletes like taking part because they compete for their home nations, england, scotland, wales and Northern Ireland.

What happens next . The Commonwealth Games federation issued a brief statement saying that a dialogue with other Potential House is ongoing, so we wait to see. Now, lets turn to a one woman show and i really do mean a one woman. Georgie grier is performing at the Edinburgh Festival, and this is what she posted last night. There was one person in my audience today when i performed my one woman play, sunsets at edfringe. Its fine, isnt it. Its fine .
